30/30 club?[edit]

"He is a member of the 30/30 club, scoring over 30 career goals and 30 career assists (43 and 34 respectively)."

Why is this notable information? Those are not impressive totals for a player's career, especially for a striker. Even in MLS, Preki had over 450 career goals; Carlos Hermosillo had over 300; Raul Diaz Arce and Luis Hernández had over 150, Joe Max Moore over 100. Brian Ching has over 130 goals, and he's still playing. Mamadou Diallo scored over 30 goals in just two seasons with Tampa Bay. Winterbadger (talk) 15:29, 16 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
